Refurbished Formwork: The Smart Contractor’s Secret Weapon
In construction, margins matter. Every dollar saved without sacrificing safety or quality is a win. One of the most underrated ways to stretch your project budget is through refurbished formwork—and at Forming America, we make it easier than ever to get the most from your equipment.
What Is Refurbished Formwork?
Refurbished formwork is previously used forming equipment that has been professionally repaired, cleaned, and reconditioned to meet strict performance standards. At Forming America, our in-house renovation team restores formwork to near-original condition, ensuring it’s jobsite ready.
Why Refurbished Formwork Makes Sense
1. Cost Savings Without Compromise
Refurbished formwork is significantly more affordable than new. You can expect substantial savings—sometimes up to 40%—while still meeting structural requirements and maintaining project timelines.
2. Proven Performance
Our refurbished formwork systems, like the Symons Steel-Ply, are durable and engineered for repeated use. When properly restored, they offer performance on par with new systems—at a fraction of the cost.
3. Sustainability in Action
Using refurbished formwork helps reduce waste and extend the lifecycle of construction materials. It’s a greener option that aligns with sustainability goals and responsible resource management.
Our Renovation Process
At Forming America, our renovation process includes:
• Thorough inspections for damage or wear
• Replacing missing or damaged components
• Cleaning and prepping all surfaces
• Ensuring alignment and compatibility
The result? A high-performance product that looks and functions like new—without the new-equipment price tag.
When to Choose Refurbished
Refurbished formwork is ideal for:
• Contractors looking to expand their inventory affordably
• Projects with tighter budgets or aggressive timelines
• Supplementing owned systems with matching components
• Companies looking to reduce their environmental footprint
